If Candles are more of your thing - you can even have her paint you a lovely candle holding vase as well. smaller ones like the round vase shown below are easy to put tealight candles in. Since the paint is semi-clear it makes a lovely glow of colors flickering as the candle burns.
Abby is from New York, NY. She is a city gal with lots of imagination and talent. Her heart is big as well. She's very generous with her works of art. I had the pleasure of coming to know about her lovely creations through the club that we are both a part of. http://club.wedding-luv.com She has posted a couple giveaways there already.

I really love the colors she used in this vase below. Purple and then the blueish sea green color. It's gorgeous.
Did you know that there is a tradition that goes along with the wedding vase? I never knew about it before meeting Abby. Apparently about a week or two before the wedding day... the groom to be's parents make the Wedding Vase. Once the Vase has been made, the groom, along with his parents and all his relatives go to the bride's house. Then...
The brides parents and the grooms parents take turns giving the young couple advice to help them have a happy and successful marriage. After this, Holy Water is placed in the Wedding Vase and the Vase is turned around and given to the bride. She drinks from one side of the Vase, turns it round again and gives it to the groom who then drinks from the opposite side of the Vase. This ceremony unites them as one.
The couple will treasure the Vase throughout their married life. Should one of them out-live the other, the remaining person will give the Vase to a couple known to be living a happily married life. The Wedding Vase is treasured and protected always and it is never broken.
Isn't this a neat tradition to bring into your marriage?
Now even if you don't want to do the actual wedding vase tradition - who's to say that you can't have a beautiful custom painted vase? These vases make such a lovely gift for all kinds of occasions. give more than just flowers on your anniversary... make a special present for a birthday or how about the pretty heart vase above for Valentine's day. They are all so very unique - you really should check out Abby's website to see all the unique samples she has photos of.
